Their fundraising efforts culminated in their “Credit Union for Kids” day on September 13th. Over 50 members joined the credit union for a BBQ, tricky tray and pictures with the NJ Devil.

“The Board of Directors, volunteers and staff of Community Financial Services Federal Credit Union share in the Credit Union philosophy of “People Helping People.” said Robert Caruso, CEO of Community Financial Services Federal Credit Union. “Both Kelly Weiss and Vickie Iton did a spectacular job in making this, our fourth event, a huge success,”

Though their partnership with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, Community Financial Services has raised almost $16,000 over the past five years through miracle balloon campaigns with members and jeans days with employees. This year, over 100 credit union members contributed to the hospital.

Children's Specialized Hospital is the largest pediatric rehabilitation healthcare system in the United States. It is the preeminent provider of rehabilitation for children with special needs, serving children affected by brain injury, spinal cord dysfunction and injury, premature birth, autism, developmental delays, and life-changing illnesses. Children’s Specialized has ten sites in New Jersey.

“We are so grateful to Community Financial Services Federal Credit Union,” said Nicole Fulmino, Children’s Miracle Network Program Director at Children’s Specialized Hospital. “They have been loyal partners to us for many years and are true miracle makers!”
